Pump for OS 1.60FX?
I am installing a new OS 1.60FX in my Sig Cap 231EX. I will be installing a Slimline Pitts style muffler on it. I have read that in order for the engine to run really well with the Pitts style muffler I will need to use a pump. I am just wondering what pump I should use? I have read the Perry pump works well but they make two kinds of pumps, which one do I need? Thanks in advance!!

Pump for OS 1.60FX?
Tony,
As long as your muffler gives you enough pressure to your fuel tank, you won't need a pump. A pump would be needed if you want to place your fuel tank away from the engine and close to the CG of the model. The long fuel lines will require that the fuel gets more "push" than muffler pressure will provide.
Any of the pump systems for the larger engines will work out well.
